Walky Dogs

Walky Dogs Since 2017 solo dog walking, drop ins and sitting within Port Talbot. Dog behaviour trained. INSURED AND DBS CHECKED I started Walky Dogs in June of 2017.

I offer solo dog walks for all breeds of dogs and neutering status. I have a lot of experience in puppy training having volunteered for a year at South Wales Dog Training Academy. I have attended a Dog Law course which gave me more awareness of the law relating to dogs. I am always reading and researching to keep my dog behaviour knowledge up to date so I can do my job to my best ability. I love d

ogs! I have had dogs my whole life. Lurchers and terriers whilst still at home and more recently, staffordshire bull terriers. I added to my crew last year with a rescue lurcher puppy. He is huge but a lovely dude. He has taught me so much more in this short space of time, and goes to show that dogs are a constant learning process. If you are looking for someone to walk your dog please drop me a message x

"They just adore each other" 😍

Do they? 🤔
Sometimes we really want to see signals that just aren't there.

We may focus on one area....like a wagging tail, because it "confirms" what we hope is true.
The reality though is scared, conflicted or anxious dogs can and often do wag their tails.

Unsure what's occurring?
In moments like these....the majority "rules".

A dog "backing away" ?
That can be a pretty clear signal for us to pay attention to.
It can even be combined with a little "happy dance".
That pattering and quick plods....those fast moving feet?

It can look playful but can mean your dog is unsure or even uncomfortable with what is happening.

Scroll back a few posts.
Look at ways to support those nervy greeters.
There are lots of ideas for that on this page.

Forcing interactions is never a way to fast track anything positive.

Just out of interest.. those who have their dogs groomed how much do you pay roughly?
I’ve been thinking around £30/35 is average but not so sure 🤔

Back to normal next week. This week has been a bit of a right off what with coming back from holiday straight into a funeral. Everything happens at once and that’s very true xx

Our Story

Hi,

Walky Dogs was set up in June 2017. I wanted to provide a personal service to people in the local community that didn’t cost the earth, and came up with Walky Dogs - a one to one dog walking service.

The business has grown steadily in the last two years and I have learned so much more about dogs. I am currently studying a Foundation Diploma in Canine Behaviour and hope to move on to the advanced diploma after completion.

The last two years has given me a lot of experience in dog behaviour and communication, and I am pretty good at working out a dog’s next move (handy when you are walking in a popular dog walking place).
